The rise of the prince

Chapter 321 The Hidden Cause of Disaster

The so-called everyone gathers firewood and the flames are high, and so are the rumors.

The victory in the south has greatly inspired the hearts of Jing Guo, and the whole country is rejoicing and cheering, telling everyone, because it has been suppressed for too long.

Since King Wu's rebellion ten years ago forced the retreat of Zhongdaoyu's victorious army from the Liao Dynasty, Jingguo's fortunes seemed to be declining day by day. People commit soldiers, the emperor is assassinated, Suzhou rebels
What happened one after another made the streets and alleys panic, the people of Kyushu whispered, the people of insight were vigilant, and the court officials were devastated.

After all, it has been a long time since Jingguo had an inspiring victory.

Under such circumstances, Li Xingzhou, the king of Pingnan County, went south to rescue his sister-in-law with thousands of people, and the miraculous victory in the end was particularly important and meaningful.

Moreover, the transmission of information is inherently subjective, and after each person passes it, it will be mixed with subjective judgments. After thousands of people have passed it on by word of mouth, the story about the 16-year-old son of the emperor and the king of Pingnan County has become miraculous. , different opinions.

Goulan restaurants, tea houses and restaurants, storytellers and singers, readers and soldiers, all kinds of people have their own rhetoric, Pingnan Wang Li Xingzhou seems to have become the Eight Immortals, showing his magical powers among all kinds of people, each It is powerful, and then no one knows it, no one knows it.

Originally, during the queen's national funeral, no dancing, music or celebration was allowed, but at the beginning of June, the emperor personally issued a decree to make a special case, not only allowing the people to celebrate the victory, but even the royal family would also hold a celebration.

They even jointly signed a letter to the sect to clean up the triumphant army.

When the emperor heard about the great joy, he ordered Wang Yue, the king of Pingzhang under Tongzhong Shumen, to lead a hundred officials and Daijun to go out of the city ten miles to meet him.

"Your Highness, drinking too much hurts your body." In the small courtyard of the Prince's Mansion, everything is growing, green bamboos and flowers are flourishing, and there is a banquet in the middle, and Mr. Fang sits at the desk to persuade him.

The prince ignored it, drank another glass, and burped. The smell of alcohol filled the air for a while, and Mr. Fang frowned slightly and backed away, then shook his head again.

"Mr. Fang, I am not willing!" The crown prince was half lying on the wine table, talking in a daze, with half of his face pressed against the table stained with wine, and he could not speak clearly: "Li Xingzhou is Li Xingzhou again! Li Xingzhou .”

As he spoke, he bumped his head against the hard stone table unwillingly, Mr. Fang hurriedly stopped him, but he pushed back a few steps, and ignored him for a while.

A person who is not decisive and ruthless in doing things is not ruthless in dealing with things, not ruthless with others, and will not be ruthless with himself. Mr. Fang understands this.

Sure enough, although the prince hit the table with his head, he was drunk, but he still couldn't stand the pain, and he was sure of his strength, so he couldn't hurt himself.

After bumping into each other for a while, his face turned red, maybe he was tired, so he stopped, holding a white jade bowl in front of him and muttering to himself: "It used to be Xiao Wang Li Chengshe, now it is Pingnan King Li Xingzhou. Their father and son are my plague! Stubborn illness! Give me a headache!

As long as they are there, people are stupid, they can only see them, just look at them!
How can Li Xingzhou break through one hundred thousand with a thousand people? How can he capture Linyang and occupy Suzhou? Why is it him?Why is it always someone from his family, why?"

Mr. Fang didn't say a word, just sat quietly at the opposite table, and sighed slightly, the prince's fault had happened again, but he couldn't interrupt.

"The most hateful thing is that he obviously steals my limelight and covers my glory, but I still drink wine from his palace, eat meat from Tingyulou, and all the women in the mansion use that shit perfume!" The prince gritted his teeth.

Mr. Fang cupped his hands, "His Royal Highness, the mansion bought the perfume and the general's brew from a large merchant in the west of Beijing. Although they are much more expensive, the purpose is to not use the things from Prince Xiao's Mansion so that His Highness can feel at ease."

"It's nonsense! Deceive your ears and steal your bell, you think I'm a fool! Those big merchants and peddlers all bought their goods from the Wangfu, and they are also from the Xiaowangfu! It's still from the Xiaowangfu." Rolling down, he actually started to cry.

Mr. Fang hurriedly said: "Your Highness, these things are just a momentary dispute, so we should look at them more broadly.

If you care too much about small profits and losses, it will be difficult to achieve great things.What your majesty should do at this time is to be cautious and respectful to serve the emperor. In this way, this vast country and splendid society must belong to your majesty. At that time, no matter how expensive the wine is and how fragrant the perfume is, it will be nothing. It's just something in the bag, why should it be like this?"

Speaking of this, Mr. Fang couldn't help standing up and bowing solemnly, and tried to persuade him: "The so-called cleverness is nothing more than focusing on small things, so that you can't see Mount Tai with a single leaf, it is not the work of the superiors.

Only by not being blinded by the small things in front of you can you see the so-called big picture. Under the big picture, everything else is small. Only by jumping out of rigid views can you focus on the big picture. For these little things disturbed vision ah!

Li Xingzhou is inherently talented, but he is also in a small situation. Why should His Highness be jealous?If His Highness does not leak any flaws, he is only a person in the small situation, and when the big situation is settled, he will be fine."

In the middle of Mr. Fang's earnest speech, when he turned his head, the prince had already fallen asleep lying on the table, his face was stained by broth and wine.
Mr. Fang only felt distressed in his heart and sweet in his throat, he was speechless for a while, and staggered out of the yard.

"Hahaha, this is an extraordinary feat, can you add a general when you go back!" Yan Shen said excitedly while riding on the horse.

Di Zhi is also proud of his spring breeze, and he has made great achievements.

Li Xingzhou smiled and shook his head, "I'm a general, and it won't work if old man Zhong Daoyu goes back to raise pigs."

Everyone laughed, Qiu'er in his arms was uncomfortable with the bumpy road, and fell asleep leaning against his chest.

She was originally riding in a carriage, but after sitting for two days, she was afraid of sitting, so she took her to get some air on the back of the horse, and as soon as the breeze blew, she fell asleep peacefully. Snow fell on his back, and his arms were numb.

They returned to Beijing with a total of more than 7 troops including auxiliary troops and miscellaneous servants. They walked for fifty or sixty miles, and it took half a day to walk from the rear army to the front army.

This journey was not in a hurry, and on the other side, Ji Chunsheng took the big boat on the waterway.

Everyone was beaming, with their heads held high, this was a victorious army, although only a thousand people from the Shenji Battalion really participated in the bitter battle, the main force of the Luzhou soldiers had already been disbanded in Luzhou.

The Luzhou army has grown into a real elite soldier after going through the war, but Li Xingzhou can't take them away.

Firstly, the emperor would not allow him to have so many soldiers; secondly, it would not last long. Why did the ancient country brave want to fight? Xiang Yu explained it clearly from the perspective of a soldier, "Wealth and honor do not return to the hometown, like a night walk in a brocade."

That's right, to return home for riches and honor, and to go through the market for clothes.

So when Liu Bang made great achievements, he was suppressed and sent to Hanzhong. Most of the people who came with him were Chu people.

But everything has two sides. Some people say that the soldiers are fleeing, and Han Xin says that the army is thinking about returning, so we can fight!
It was with this general's desire to go home that the Han army re-emerged from Hanzhong and took over the world. Everyone knows what happened afterwards.

It shows how important it is for the ancients to return the fallen leaves to their roots.

They are not afraid of death, but they are afraid that they will not return home after death, and become lonely ghosts. Therefore, out of love and reason, life and death are shared, and the bloody Luzhou Army can only be disbanded no matter how reluctant it is.

The ones who are respected by the world and praised by later generations are the martial arts soldiers who returned to Beijing. They can truly secure the world, save the country from danger, and the generals of the society and the country are the soldiers of Luzhou.

Yan Shen was still triumphant on the horseback, wishing he could poke his chin into the sky, Li Xingzhou couldn't help laughing: "What more generals are there, I'm afraid the palace will be in danger when I go back this time."

Yan Shen was stunned: "Why, my son, we have made great contributions, and the emperor should reward us."

Di Zhi was also taken aback, and then said: "Yes, my lord, my subordinates don't understand, why do you say fierce?"

Li Xingzhou glanced at the two of them, and then said, "Because the emperor sent someone to rescue me."

"This is not a good thing. It shows that His Majesty loves the prince more than others." Di Zhi said, and Yan Shen also nodded. He couldn't say such beautiful words as Di Zhi, and his skills were not as good as Ji Chunsheng. The son thinks about things.

"I dare not say that I know [-]% or [-]% of the emperor's personality, but I can see [-]% or [-]% of it. His family is above everything else, and family inheritance is important." After finishing speaking, he whispered: "To put it bluntly, don't Talk to him about favors, otherwise there will be no good end, if before, he would not be so risky to save me, but he sent people south this time, he should be old, and when people get old, it is easy to miss favors and think about blood."

"My lord, what's wrong with this?" Di Zhi was puzzled.
